.... for this website? I'm reading so much good information and finding so much good stuff to seek out and buy, expensive upgrades and vintage bargains alike, and I think it's driving me mad!

In the last couple weeks I have bought a Bokrand arm, a Micro-Acoustics cartridge, an Ortofon SL15 and an Ortofon SUT with Jorgen Schou transformers. And this is all while my Garrard 401 is being rebuilt. I can't stop!!! Help!!! :)

The good news is all that stuff was still way cheaper than a pair of fancy cables ;)

How are you getting along with your Diatone's?

What is the true metric of an 'audio problem'? Not listening to music just surfing forums :)

Well, no. I listen to music while I surf forums.... and find things that people agree are great and then surf around looking for those items. All with some sporting event playing on mute. It's a lot. At least the music is the background to my disease. It could be worse. I'm still (mostly) honest about what things cost when my wife asks :)

So great. We are best friends! I don't even mind rolling them in for listening (our place is a small loft).

I listen to a bunch of different types of music and everything sounds good on them. It's pretty amazing when I think of all the compromises I endured with the Harbeth 30.1s. I've been in this hobby for 40 years and never before them realized what it was that I needed. I think I like them better than my old Quad ESL57s and I never thought I'd say that about any speaker. Even with the silly little Well Tempered turntable I'm using right now, they just capture the performance of the music like nothing else I've heard... and that means I'm not constantly evaluating them because they are so true to the source!
